Summary
Allan Collett introduces Ziva to the initial steps of bridling, focusing on building trust and ensuring her comfort for future bridling sessions.
Allan always had a fascination for all things natural and horsemanship has really been an extension of that. It all started riding ponies around 12 years of age before working with a local racehorse trainer before school and on weekends. Allan eventually trained horses in his own right. Little did Allan know an unruly colt and an introduction to horseman Wayne Anderson would totally change the way he thought about the horse-human relationship from that moment on. Wayne exposed Allan to the ways of great horsemen Buck Brannaman, Ray Hunt, Tom and Bill Dorrance and others of the influence.
Great horsemen and women who have passed down knowledge from people such as Tom and Bill Dorrance, Ray Hunt and Buck Brannaman. These people have had a profound influence on me not only as a student of the horse but as a person in general.
Beginning with the basic foundation that I use, day in and day out with any type of horse. Whether it is doing clinics or lessons from home, I see the same basic fundamentals missing with people riding. The horse-human relationship is compromised, troubled and often downright dangerous. It is not through arrogance or lack of trying, it is just that many people haven’t been shown a better way.Regardless of breed or discipline, I always check out the basics and progress from there - this is groundwork.Groundwork allows me to get a feel for where the horse is at, in regards to understanding your feel.
